More reviews at Rondo of a Possible World: YA Book Reviews First off let me say that I enjoyed the first book much more than I did the second. And the one reason why I did in the first was that there was more suspense and less emotion hopping. When you start off in Catching Fire Katniss and Peeta are going around each district on their Victory Tour, and it's just so BORING! Sure there were some parts that were made to draw you in because who wants a boring beginning in a book. No one, that's who. My brother, who never reads but loved The Hunger Games, didn't finish this book because of how the beginning took off on the wrong foot. Beauty and riches, parties and dresses. I wanted what the first book had, not a protagonist who couldn't pick and choose which boy to throw herself at and was pampered to every beck and call. Katniss, oh what happened to you? The Hunger Games. She suffers from the woes of a teenage beating heart and two boys who will do anything for her. But she doesn't have the balls to pick, and uses President Snow as an excuse. I'm not one for whiny main characters but Katniss just took things to a whole new level. And her undying resolve to keep Peeta alive doesn't help her case because it's just really annoying. The reason why I didn't stop reading the book, from the first time Katniss pissed me off to no end or the boring beginning putting me to sleep, was one character: Finnick Odair. Literally the only reason. The whole entire second half of the book had gotten so much better because there was so much Finnick in it and from the action that I was looking for from the very first chapter, not pretty pampered Katniss. Having won the Hunger Games back when he was only fourteen-years-old--Fourteen!--Finnick is strong, loyal, and cunning. And he's nice on the eyes, too. I will read the next book, even though I know how Mockingjay ends and what happens in between, only because my love for Finnick is just too strong to stay away. And because the cliffhanger was really good I must confess. Final Summation: Finnick. Yes, I have found a character that I can adore. After bashing most guys in YA, I have found one that is thankfully not a main love interest and whipped. The action towards the ending and the cliffhanger was definitely the one of the best things the second book had going for it. Katniss was not a factor that I liked in this book and I wish there was more good character development rather than cold, emotion-flipping, pampered, boring old Katniss. I wanted what the first book supplied in her, but I got something that I never wanted in a strong main character that she was. Oh well.

****MILD SPOILERS**** I read Book of a Thousand Days because it is my friend's FAVORITE book and she let me borrow it. At first, I wasn't sure I was going to like it... Then, before I knew it, I was more than half-way through in one day. By the next morning, I had finished the book. There were many things that I liked about this book. I really enjoyed the Mongolian theme and setting. While I have never read the original fairy-tale this book is based on, I am sure that the setting of B1000 lent a new side to the story. It was interesting and different from most books that I've read, and the cultural aspects revolving around the setting were refreshing and fascinating. Dashti is a strong protagonist, and although she seemed relatively one-sided at first, she definitely developed more of a personality and a voice as the story progressed and she became disillusioned with the traditions of her life thus far. I adored My Lord the cat and Mucker the yak. The love story was predictable, but still romantic and sweet. The conflicts were intense, albeit short-lived. The illustrations were beautiful as well. Of course, there were also the aspects of the book that prevented me from giving it a 5-star rating. While I am fully aware that B1000 is based on a fairy-tale, everything just seemed a little TOO easy to resolve. The book focused a bit too much (at least for me) on descriptions of simple mucker life and singing various songs than on the romance and especially the conflicts. The solutions to the conflicts came instantly when Dashti began to focus on them, and they wrapped up a little too quickly for my taste. Also, the end of the story came too rapidly. I would have been more interested to see more weight placed on the end of the story than the beggining-early middle of it. Essentially though, my issues with the book were mostly just personal preferences. Overall, Book of a Thousand Days was an engrossing story for light-reading and a bit of a guilty pleasure. I would recommend it for mainly girls from middle school and up. While I had my own issues with the book, I did enjoy it overall :D
